Classical

The Classical Music department, very international in its composition, is a close-knit community. We work towards one common goal: to let our students blossom, in an amicable atmosphere, into excellent musicians whose energy and creativity offer a valuable contribution to the international world of music and to society.

Get started

Music in Education

The Music in Education programme has the power to see you as an individual. You will be inspired by our passion for music and education. You will feel it from the day you arrive until long after graduation.
This programme is entirely in Dutch, so you need to be able to speak and write in Dutch in order to apply!

Events

We do not make music for ourselves. We make it for you, our audience. That is why we regularly play in the city and surrounding area, hold jam sessions in various cafés, play Lazy Sunday Concerts or take our productions to nursing homes and schools. We also give public performances at our home base. So keep an eye on our upcoming events!

Booking Agency

Conservatorium Maastricht supports not only students, but also teachers in many ways. Cultural entrepeneurship is a very important aspect of Conservatorium Maastricht. The Booking Agency provides students the opportunity to perform outside their study. Also, we provide our students and teachers a platform for their own products.
